Thriller

INCALL is a confrontational thriller about sexual power play, greed and deception explored from a female perspective. It examines issues that have traditionally been avoided by moviemakers because of a gender bias to stereotype women as softer and more compassionate. It portrays three women as confident, complex, sexually focused characters who represent the modern woman. This project hopes to raise awareness of these challenging yet critical concerns.

“Knows its tropes well enough to wield them for effective scares instead of becoming cliché … A well-crafted, bite-sized horror that I’d wager could hold its own against other feature-length contenders.”

A short neo-noire thriller centered around a mysterious druggist visited by Sangstrom, a seemingly ordinary man in search of an undetectable poison. Yet, Sangstrom winds up getting more than he bargained for from the sagacious alchemist.

Logline: When a botched robbery in lower Manhattan forces three desperate men on board the Staten Island Ferry their only option is to commandeer the boat and try to figure out an exit strategy. But how do you escape from a slow moving vessel with over 800 hostages when you are being pursued by both Police and Coast guard helicopters and boats?!

Tag Line: When a quiet ride on the Staten Island Ferry just isn’t in the cards!

Director Statement

Scientists are nowadays explorers. Whether they launch rockets in space, built submarines to explore the deepest oceans and work to understand how our brains and bodies work, they strive to break barriers.

SEEDS is about one type of those scientists, the astronauts, whose curiosity to visit other planets leads them to make enormous sacrifices.
